My gliders chase each other and pull each others' tails (specially when they are trying to steal food from the other), and while this is going on they are being really noisy, chattering an clicking.
Then my female is like you described: "beast mode". She is always been very skittish and hyperactive though, I don't know if yours started all of the sudden. Freyja, my female, does the tail think when she is "stalking" something, usually a feather or eucalyptus leaf I'm holding. Loki, my male, does it as well but only when I am holding a mealie (his favorite treat).
It would help to have the information Blue asked for.
